Hunted.

Side 1:

First, it was all rumours, and like every other rumour, it  was spreading with light speed,

The topic: A big dawg' was threatened to get exposed by an unknown, who by all means would be placeed as a smaller dawg'

who this smaller 'dawg' was, was not certain yet,

No one knew what was up, we at the periferals of the inner circle had just a little clue, one of us was surely going to be the smaller dawg' with the threat, it was almost certain.

The question was, who?

6pm, on a chill out, sipping palm liquor on my balcony, after being disappointed by Tola, our fight the day before, her anger towards me, I decided to take a walk, spend some lone time out in the streets like the normal folks do. Just 16yards covered, I noticed I was quitely being followed.

The first man was lanky, he wore a black shirt in a brown jacket, he had ear phones on and a black sun shade at about 6:25pm which really was odd to me,

the second man was average, no sun shade on, he actually didn't need any of those to look like a hitman. it was clear enough to me that he wasn't defiling his steps, he came straight at me,

well, I thought to my self, I could take on that guy and end it in few minutes, however the other lanky one seemed more to me like the problem.

It was a sharp and hot scratch at the back of my head, I  got too surprised to pay attention to it and the fact that the hit didn't make me slow then in a few seconds, it occurred to me that it was a real bullet. A second sound came, then I was sure this time, by all means I was being lucky or they wanted me in one piece.

At that point, all my instinct said was, Run!, we can check for scratches on your head later, at the moment, you are alive, Just RUN.

Then I Ran, and predictably, they pursued me.

Episode 1 'stay in Africa' I was 15 when i finished secondary school, a rare situation in clans around the world like Nigeria. So legally, i am to wait till I'm 17 to be in a university. Well this is no problem as jamb is willing to help with the job. But I didn't care about Jamb, or collage or anything, i just wanted to leave Nigeria, basically Africa. So i scraped jamb for three years hoping to get a scholarship in a country that is not in African. In my naive small mind, to me i was "my own man"so i took instructions from nobody, But it doesn't work like that here because ass whooping from parents in clans like Niaja is something they do with pride, its "proudly African" with the 'WHOOP RESPONSIBLY' tag on it. that's why you don't get to see punkass brats in africa. So i stayed at home for some years and before i knew what was up, i was 19. I didn't want to be a 22 year old 100 level niqqa in college. So it ran...

Episode - 6 "self treaty"   On a cool calm morning, after a heavy rain in the early hours, I laid in bed thinking the best recipe for a "my kind of morning" dish. And I thought to myself, maybe, just maybe 'Akara and Akamu' (without milk), just sugar would be perfect. I stopped one to think about making it myself, but I may starve before I finish the preparation. So it stepped off my bed for the nearest local breakfast spot. Nma Tedus, a local who own a little joint for mainly local dishes and palm wine. A typical African spot where one could listen to the funniest jokes, and the wisest saying. That was where I saw Mr obiugwu and Mr wale for the first time, they both are different personalities but had something in common, palm will and local Gin. Mr obiugwu is a short and rounded man, his voice was like the sound of an old model speaker on loud volume, people thought it was his excessive consumption of palm wine that destroyed his vocal cords. Mr wale o...

Clad In Thoughts

I placed me In my thought, a large balcony covered with leaves, and long straws, with colourful petals growing on numerous stems that sprouted, cloudy over my head it was with bright light rays piercing the clouds. Like a garden, the balcony was pleasant with it's smell. At a corner sat a chair I saw myself sitting in as comfortable as my brain could imagine; warm, soft, clean and pleasant.  "Hmm, I could sit there for years" myself in my thoughts thought to itself.  Right inside my thought was the girl I liked standing at a corner the size of a rice grain whom a me adored so much. At another corner stood another me like a grain working so hard as though it was trying to build a V12 engine on AI. At another corner was another grain me marking my own exam scripts correcting my mistakes and scoring myself high as I marked. Then at another corner was another grain me barking at the top of its voice at a grain who seemed like the president, arms crossed, face frowned, seeming...
